He Has Risen Indeed!



JESUS INDEED HAS RISEN---and celebrate we did! Grandma Jean and Grandpa Dick came to celebrate Easter with us, and we had a wonderful time. We gave them a little tour of our town (stopping, of course, at the carousel for a spin and some ice cream), we attended a gorgeous Mass at the cathedral, we decorated Easter eggs and our Easter Lamb cake, we read books and played games, and we ate like royalty (thanks to Jean and Dick who did pretty much ALL of the cooking because I was too nauseous to be in the kitchen)! Despite the nausea, we all had a lovely time and we captured many of the highlights on camera...may these pictures bring you JOY and may the true meaning of Easter fill you with HOPE!

I think this photo creatively captures the true meaning of Easter: Jesus loved us so much that He died on the cross to save us from our sins...ALLELUIA!

A family photo at the Cathedral...I'm looking so happy because we successfully made it through a long and beautiful Mass with hardly any fussing from our 3-year-old :)
